The "classics" have become monotonous.

agreed, and I think she does retirn today (so naturally I have a 10:00 meeting). Webster's on vacay this week, so Renee's in charge (speaking of monotonous).

Yay Cyndi - though I would've preferred hearing All Through the Night.

They weren't, but Invisible Touch was. Really bad, and I'm a Genesis fan (though not of that era).

Yeah, not much at all to recommend this one. Mike could not have picked a better day for a 10 am meeting.

Post by: Tinka Cat on July 05, 2011, 10:44:39 AM: I hate these Chartbuster Sets, they are forever boring and are like listening to the last 20 minutes of AT40, no surprises, and all over-played hits.

but if I have to:

BOS:
All Those Years Ago - Geo Harrison

HMs:
She's A Booty - Tubes
Time After Time - Cyndi Lauper
Prince - Raspberry Beret

WOS:
Billy Joel
38 Geary

Post by: Big Fingers McGee on July 05, 2011, 10:46:54 AM: It would be cool if all the songs played were at #40 that week or something, but yeah, this set screams "need not hear". And to wind the set up with "Good Thing"? Egad!

You've summed it up. Guess AL's gotta please the PD and the masses now and then. Perhaps that set was a way to ease back in from vacay mode. Hopefully more adventurous sets the rest of the week.

glad I missed, and no desire to hear the replay. But yeah, "Chartbusters" has been AL's go-to mode the first day back from vacay.
